Screen Sharing crashes on load after SnowLeopard Install


Recommended Posts

Ever since i installed snow Leopard the screen sharing application will crash on load. Has anyone else had this issue and also is there an easy way of remedying it without reinstalling Snow leopard from scratch instead of upgrade?

I would just send the report to Apple, telling them that it's crashing on launch. I was having the same problem, but it seems like 10.6.1 fixed it for me. Obviously not for you. :(

I think that it is safe to say that they updated the Screen Sharing app in Snow Leopard and the version that i had copied and moved to my applications folder was the old leopard version.

When i copied the version from the core services folder into my applications folder it worked like a charm.

Thanks Giga!
